Kinda my own personal bible, these are quotes that kinda sum up my basic beliefs:

About Beliefs (rather strong-agnosticish)

• "The belief that there is only one truth & that oneself is in possession of it seems to me the deepest root of all evil that is in the world."
• "Nobody is more dangerous than he who imagines himself pure in heart, for his purity, by definition, is unassailable.”
• "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction"
• The only appropriate attitude for man to have about the big questions is not the arrogant certitude that is the hallmark of religion, but doubt. Doubt is humble, and that's what man needs to be, considering that human history is just a litany of getting sh*t dead wrong."

Ethics & Morality

• "If there is no great, glorious end to all this, if nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do. Cuz that's all there is- what we do. Now. Today...All I want to do is help. I want to help because I don't think people should suffer as they do. because if there's no bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world"
• "Do to others as you would have them to do you"
• "Be the change you want to see in the world"
• "I know. But I do not approve & I am not resigned"

Love

• "Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for"
• "If two people love each other there can be no happy end to it"
• "That's what real love amounts to- letting a person be what he really is."
• "Love withers under constraints: Its very essence is liberty: it is compatible neither with obedience, jealousy, nor fear.."
• "I take the good with the bad. i can't love people in slices."
• "Love is always bestowed as a gift- freely, willingly & without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love."
• "One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving."

Politics & Freedom

• “Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves."
• "If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too."
• "I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think; I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice...I want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-o all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the need to, okay, pal?"
